The building is situated in the center of Landsmeer on the main street. The ground level is publicly accessible by retail shops on all sides. Stairwells on either side of the building bring residents to an elevated courtyard by which all apartments are accessed. Rhytmic sectioning of the facades make the housing bays readable on a scale connected to the village. The exterior of the building is materialized in red brick, while the inner courtyard is softer with natural elements of wood cladding and ochre window-stills. A patinated tin roof crowns the building.
